Experiment and learn at Brighton Montessori
We just want our kids to be happy. A happy child loves to learn and play. Finding an educational environment where your child will be happy is the sweet spot. So how do you go about finding the right school? You can research, you can narrow down the options through geography, cost and teaching philosophy, and you can visit. In a lot of cases, this process of elimination will mean that the terrific Brighton Montessori is sitting on your list. Well, we’re happy to tell you this reputable preschool is holding an Open Day on 26 April so that you can really check things out.
Montessori is a unique and effective approach to education and Brighton Montessori is a leader amongst the Singapore offerings in this field. We love the ethos behind Montessori, with its focus on the child progressing at their own pace combined with specially designed learning tools. A big difference at Brighton is the tangible learning outcomes set for each child and their advocacy of family collaboration. This multi-pronged approach ultimately helps children help themselves to thrive.
While daily activities include the usual offerings of Mandarin, music & movement, and show & tell, amongst others, it is the strong teaching philosophy that underlies all activities at Brighton that helps develop independent and inquisitive thinkers. Delivering a well-balanced curriculum through the Montessori method and access to Montessori materials is key.
Materials that aid teaching in a Brighton classroom include sandpaper letters that foster the understanding of sounds through the visual and tactile memory of symbols, golden beads that aid in learning of the decimal system and numerical numbers, knobbed cylinders that develop visual awareness of height and width, and dressing frames to hone motor skills through buttoning and zipping exercises. Handling these materials allows children to teach themselves and work out how to work well in a group as well as individually. At the Brighton Montessori Open Day, your kids will have the opportunity to interact with this equipment so you can see the clever effect for yourself.
To find out more, join the Open Day on 26 April and hear from experienced senior principals about the benefits of the Montessori methos and what sets Brighton apart.
